Good point, initially I just wanted to propose a fix about logging and
not change the message, in order to avoid to lose informations (but
that's very arguable).
phy_attached_print or phy_attached_info already display the model of the
PHY, so I think that removing PHY ID is okay, because in this case it is
completely useless.

I will post a v3 with your Reviewed-by:
